Searching in OVID

The OVID interface is different from the EBSCO one that is more common for Camosun.

The OVID database has a different base of journals than the EBSCO version.  If you do not find appropriate articles in the EBSCO database or you want to carry out a more comprehensive search of your topic you may want to search Medline in both OVID and EBSCO.

OVID is also the interface for EMBR, Evidence Based Medical reviews and the Cochrane Database of Systematic reviews.
